This is a fun place to visit

Tourism is one of the main sources of income for Costa Rica and once your are here it is not hard to see why.  The country is beautiful as we got our first real glimpse of the country side today on our trip to the coffee farm and I cannot wait until we get out of San Jose this weekend to see more of the country.  San Jose is nice but as I mentioned in a previous post it is not that exciting and could just be another city in the U.S. where everyone speaks spanish and some people speak english.

As far as tourism goes we are obviously getting some first hand experience with it on our trip.

I am not sure if i have mentioned all this before so here is a brief list of what we have done to this point.

We have taken several bus tours of different parts of San Jose

We have taken a walking tour of part of down town San Jose and eaten at a local restaurant ( es muy bien) 

We have checked out some of the local bars (Sultans being the best by far so far as it attracts locals and tourists)

We have visited the coffee farm in Alejula

We will be partaking in tourism a lot on this trip so there will be much more to come but for now my basic knowledge is that tourism is a main source of revenue for the country and I am enjoying the tourism to this point.
